There are 2 supplies and fuses for the radio (via ignition switch and direct). Is the display completely blank?

Are both fuses under steering wheel ?

Where are we going with "Is the display completely blank?"? - I ask because I have a completely blank screen on an otherwise fully operational stereo.

Yes, I want to know too as my Activa wireless randomly looses power, just as it's been switched off...

It may have the same root cause...

Haha... me shy

I removed all fuses from under dash.....used a small air line ( very carefully). cleaned everything and replaced all fuses. The car was full of 20 year old "grot" though. touch wood the radio is now ok

just basically remove everything and thorough clean. Terry.

Excellent

Thanks Terry!

Fusebox issues are starting to become quite common now. I must go do same to mine...

Be aware that the fuse panels can also suffer from unreliable internal soldered joints (generally repairable)

Really? Like wiper intermittent relays? There's a (nasty) surprise.

Seriously, I'm always horrified at the crappy quality of automotive electrics. A dozen years ago I was appalled to find that the internal circuitry in my Montego's rear light units was stamped out of electroplated sheet steel - which went rusty when a bit of moisture got in. Not repairable, new light unit - excessive cost cutting in the last years of sorry story of BL/Rover. Saw the same problem a couple of weeks ago on an Audi A6 7 or 8 years old - German quality

eye-watering price for a new cluster.
